@@Galaxia_EX pits guatdian orbitars are wayy better then people realize, they let him land practically for free and can function like a counter against some moves because the opponent receives hitlag for hitting the orbitars and pit has none. Ever since the buffed its endlag the move has been insane. Pit also has very few bad match-ups, mostly all are even or in his favor. He has decent combos and a good projectile, good edguarding ability, mixups, decent kill power, a reflector, disjoints, invincibility on some moves, three mid air jumps, a recovery that works from the bottom of the screen, and one of if not the fastest f smashes in the game. He has to play more honest for his kills than anyone but trust me if someone uses them right his orbitars feel broken.

I don’t know the charts or data, but for me Luigi has a very small advantage because of how easy falcon can be combo‘d. That and Luigi‘s „get of me“ tools in close quarter combat. But Falcon makes up for that in his ability to rush Luigi down, edgeguard him because Luigi needs 3-4 business days to recover and generally crush him in advantage.

[@Lil_mar00]

is the cyclone punishable? I wonder if he would just bait it out instead of continuing the combo and get a strong punish.

[@emanonomoi]

@@Lil_mar00 Cylcone is -40 on shield which means that Luigi should die from 60%+ if it gets baited out(stomp knee) or at least take mad percent if it gets baited out. This fact though is exactly why Elegant isn’t extremely trigger happy on it. A good Luigi will only ever mash down-b to combo/string-break to match how much you hold forward and refuse to bait it.

[@lyrics2challenged]

@@Lil_mar00 Yes. He not only can be hit out of it, it can setup a string for a lot of characters when you miss it. Elegant always tries to go off stage with it because he can literally die if he missed and is still on stage.

[@silverlime4921]

Super fun to watch a character who can just super armour and priority through any move, combos into kill percent, with instant (nearly) unreactable kill options.

[@only1sn1not1taken]

I'm not sure if this is sarcasm or not. Incase it is, the super armour has a very tight timing and only exist for a few frames. The combos are pretty complex and varies greatly across the entire cast and varies even more based off of DI. Elegant does an amazing job with Luigi but with the large amount of prediction that you have to do to maximize the characters potential, we'll always see inconsistent results. That's why Luigi will probably always be midtier despite having such a strong theoretical flow chart.

[@PrinnyDoodMan]

I don't mind Luigi's combo game, but not being able to touch Shield without risking eating an up-B (doesn't even need to be a parry) is kinda lame and cyclone is definitely degenerate design lol. Also it doesn't have armor, it has invincibility, so he's doesn't even take damage and you can't grab him out of it. Additionally it's frame one invincibility if he's in the air (so basically anytime he's getting comboed), it's a kill move, and it has wind boxes that suck you in! Who thought it was a good idea to give it wind boxes?? 😭. Honestly most of the Luigi's kit feels fine/ even a little below average, but those two moves are hard carrying Luigi.

[@wildberry752]

6:00 Fatality was so mad Elegant did the Uno reverse card

[@Kamedouken]

I’m a falcon main and I know how hard it must be to play a Luigi of this caliber that can jam that down b out of true combos because the move is just so stupid broken. Falcon doesn’t have that option to bust out of Luigi’s dumbass 0 to death combo off a grab at 0% i feel bad. Can work your ass off and be amazing and get gimped like this. Elegant did go off though I can’t take that from him but im with my boy Griffin on this. Sorry bro

This is a whole tournament full of bad Falcon matchups. There's only so much you can do.

[@chileanfoosball876]

Elegant has a very ironic name. He starts the set by self-inducing a seizure the first two seconds into the vod, dramatically animates his every emotion throughout the match, once it's over we see him screaming 'let's fucking go' at the wall, before stumbling over himself, and then lean-waddling out of the room. The last we see of him is coming back out, sitting down at the microphone of his own accord, awkwardly complaining, then saying he didn't want to be there talking to them, and left the commentators confused and put off. There's zero elegance or charisma there lol. I don't stan fatality or anything, 'inelegant' just genuinely seems so much more fitting a name.

[@BIGAMBERFAN]

elegant is generally a really charismatic and funny guy, he just seems to be in competitor mode and he’s kind of like that when he’s focused

[@wonderful_whiscash9534]

I love his warm up shake it’s so weird and seems like something Luigi would do honestly

[@ericgonzalez3317]

Bro i agree completely that was just rude of him to the commentators and that arm cramp was so awkward… why didnt he feel it after he finished the map. Looked more like an excuse to act un elegant infront of everyone. Hopefully next time fatality faces him he stomps on down b luigi

[@DyingPharaoh]

Big man was just nervous, if you've never been nervous and overshared or put yourself in awkward position just say that. Both players were visibly stressed throughout the game, Elegant looked like he had too much adrenaline at the end and thought he had to go talk since fatality did. Yeah he wasn't too elegant but fatality wasn't too fatal that set either.

[@Kamedouken]

I like how they called him out for mashing down b too that’s great haha hurt his arm from how much he mashed

[@yama8483]

What hurt his arm wasn't mashing down b out of hitstun, the way that ultimate buffer works you dont really have to in order to get out on the first frame, what hurt his arm is that the amount you mash b as the move is out determines how much height you lose in the air if you do the air version, and keeping your height in order to be closer to the blastzone so it kills earlier, requires a shitton of mashing, like actually requiring actual proper mashing tachnique to get the most amount of inputs possible

[@yama8483]

As an example, check the playercam at 14:50 in the video. See how as Elegant starts down b offstage his arm tenses up and he does a funny face. It's because he is tensing up his arm and mashing to maintain height as he does down b as an edgeguard
